Please support Under The LobsterScope (your $5.00 makes a real difference!)
And if you do drop $5.00 or more into the kitty, you get Bill’s FIRST PICTURE FONT for free:
BILL’S DINGBATS (worth $29.00).
Just make a donation of $5.00 or more and I will send you this font (partial sample below) which is not available ANYWHERE ELSE.
I need your help, folks. Since 2004 I have been bringing you Under The LobsterScope totally free-of-charge and have avoided advertising or “blog begging” or any of the other methods of scavenging that blog writers are prone to. Unfortunately, this has had to change…just a little… to keep this information for progressives, liberals and others coming.
Even a small donation of $1 or $2 would help (although $5 helps a whole lot more.) The amount is up to you. We accept contributions through PayPal and the credit/debit cards shown below.
As I said, all contributors of $5.00 or more receive a copy of my Very First Picture Font, Bill’s Dingbats, that I created 22 years ago (I send you the versions for both Macs and PCs, plus a handy keyboard chart). This offer will end on August 31st!
I appreciate those of you who have come on board over the last few days and hope more will join in. And for those of you $5 Plus donors who received our last three Free Fonts: Bill’s Universal Symbols, Bill’s Cast O’Characters and Bill’s Century Marks, you know what a good deal this is.
So please click on the “Donate” button below:
Thanks,
Bill T.
Cartoon(s) of the Week – Does anyone know where we’re heading?
It was a big week for cartoons… lots of problems, few solutions, and a political culture that is falling apart. There were over 25 contenders for this week’s winners, and 7 that made the cut:
Time to decide who an American really is…
– and –
Tom Toles in the Washington Post:
… because Americans have the right to worship where they want to…
– and –
Mike Luckovich in the Atlanta Journal-Co0nstitution:
… and the right to determine who their enemies are…
– and –
Pat Oliphant, NY Times News Service:
… Thankfully, the Republicans have a plan to solve everything (which they don’t want to announce)…
– and –
Jimmy Margulies in the North Jersey Record:
… although at least part of their plan is what got us into this mess in the first place…
– and –
Bruce Plante in the Tulsa World (a first-timer here):
…but maybe the Tea Baggers will get the who’s who of 21st Century Politics straight (or gay)…
– and –
David Horsey on SeattlePi.com:
… at least we have Obama to blame everything on!
